Connecting Using CIMC Serial Over LAN
CIMC is the management interface for C-Series servers. It runs within the server to support remote administration,
configuration, and monitoring using web or SSH command line access. For detailed information, see the Cisco UCS
C-Series Integrated Management Controller Configuration Guides on the
CIMC password requirements
The CIMC default password must be changed to a strong password, as described in this section. If you use DHCP
addressing, you do this when you first log into the CIMC web interface. If you use static IP addresses, you change the
password during the initial boot process.
CIMC passwords must contain characters from three of the following four categories:
English uppercase letters A through Z
■
English lowercase letters a through z
■
Digits 0 through 9
■
These non-alphabetic characters: ! @ # $ % ^ & * - _ = "
■
Task 1: Configure the CIMC IP address and password (once only)

1.
Connect your network to the CIMC/dedicated management port (port 5 in
2.
Connect the supplied KVM adapter (3-legged cable) to the console port at the front of the CE1200
Connect to the Expressway Console, page 13
3.

4.
Configure your DHCP server to deliver the correct address for the CIMC. For the MAC address, use the MGMT
address on the pullout tab.
